SYSTRON INC. TNC CONNECTORS

TNC CONNECTORS

Description

TNC connectors were originally developed for aircraft and missile applications where extreme vibration is a factor. TNC connectors are of miniature size like the BNC connector but feature a threaded coupling nut for application requiring performance through 11GHz. Chosen for their durability and reliability, TNC connectors are widely used in the cellular/ mobile communication industry for equipment cabling and antenna feed interfaces.
